Found this large stick insect resting on the wall.

It was an amazing experience to watch this fellow emerge. See the whole series.

A male Metaphycus dispar parasitoid wasp that has recently eclosed from the Scale insect cocoon in the previous post. Cocoon was found on bay in Hasatings Cemetery on 6th April, adult wasp eclosed on 13th April. Additional pictures below.

I've had a few encounters with these in my Bangkok apartment recently. It seems they like the relative humidity during the wet season.

Insect and flower. I shot this series with Olympus TOUGH TG-5 by using (normal) macro feature. In this case I could not use extended focus because insect was moving way too fast and it was quite challange to get some photos even with normal macro. I shot over 200 photos to get these few. However with compact macro (with small sensor size) this is somewhat easier than with full frame sensor DSLR and macro lens. Hausjärvi, Finland. 28.8.2017

at Spring Garden Natural Area in Windsor, Ontario.

This tiny insect (about 3mm long) landed on my leg while I was sitting in the garden.

The island's trees were full of adult Mayflies; as such Ring-billed Gulls were busy flying to feed on this bounty. At night, just as dusk was falling, we were treated to the jigging flight of these insects.

I don't know why I photographed that fly, perhaps I'll ...

Insects are everywhere. Photograph a bug in your environment (no spiders - they're arachnids). (@DeForestRanger)

 

I expected this to be an easy assignment but the winds today seem to have driven off the bees and butterflies that are usually in the gardens.

 

This little bug is the most hated pest in our yard. It destroys the grape leaves, the burning bush leaves and so many flowers. We've tried the traps but haven't found them effective. So when they get too bad we take a bucket of soapy water and just pick them off the plants and toss them in the bucket. Anyone have a better plan?

 

Mosquito Enemy technician, Tyler Haase, introduces a new program IGR (Insect Growth Regulator) that offers even greater protection against the mosquitos you'll find outside.

First macro shot of the year! I put this outside after it's photoshoot, hope it survives.

I didn't notice the crab spider until I got home and started editing the photos.

This photo was taken 16 Sept. 2010 in the Houston Arboretum, Houston, TX, US using a Nikon D90.

This pair of Woodlice are just lit by the late evening sun.

 

Please bear in mind that this was taken using just the kit lens (18-70) for the Sony A300, not a proper macro lens.

One of two 7-spot ladybirds on the violets in the front garden.

This is a very recent arrival in Essex, UK with records over the last 4 years from Layer Marney and Writtle. Thanks to John Clifton of ALS for the ID. As far as I am aware in autumn 2011 there are no records yet in Norfolk and only one in Suffolk. The larvae feed on Bristly Ox-Tongue. It is likely that it will spread rapidly with such a common food plant.

first of the year for these beautiful hoppers - seen in all its gaudy glory beside the Combe Haven stream

Some of the insects we saw in Croatia. Two longhorn beetles. Left one is "agapantha villosoviridescens" and the bottom right is a Wasp beetle "clytus arietus"
